GROUP WORK AND PAIR WORK FOR LISTENING PRACTICE

Abstract

Listening is a fundamental skill in language acquisition and communication, and it often requires interactive practice to enhance comprehension and retention. Group work and pair work are two effective methods for improving listening skills in educational settings. Both approaches promote collaboration, communication, and active engagement among learners, making the listening process more dynamic and effective. This text explores the significance, advantages, methodologies, and practical applications of group work and pair work in listening practice. In language learning, listening skills are essential for effective communication. To improve these skills, teachers often use a variety of interactive methods, including group and pair work. These collaborative approaches not only create a supportive learning environment, but also provide opportunities for students to practice listening in authentic contexts. I will cover them in this article
